Hello, In my initialization scripts for hotplug (written for bash) the following command is used to redirect output which normally goes to stderr to the system logger: "exec 2> >(logger -t $0[$$])" With kernel 2.4 this command works fine, but with kernel version 2.6.3 it leads to a system hang. Can anybody help me to solve that problem? Thanks in advance Christoph - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-admin" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
